Features

Put your best and most comfortable foot first in a pair of Gizeh Thongs from Birkenstock. Make onlookers envious as you stroll through the park with effortless style, entirely at ease!

The fine construction of the Gizeh thong is specifically developed for the deep footbed, and corresponds perfectly to the anatomy of the foot. The Birkenstock thong guarantees an ideal fit, it naturally surrounds the toes and guides them back to their natural position.

Team with your casual outfits and enjoy that sunshine. Love, Kate and the birdsnest girls x

Sizing

We stock Birkenstock in regular width only. It is important to measure your foot to find the best fit. Measure the length of your foot by standing with your heel against a wall and measure from the wall to the tip of your longest toe, then add 10mm for movement. Measure the width across the broadest point.Shoe measurements (length mm x width mm) - 36: 230 x 91, 37: 240 x 93, 38: 245 x 95, 39: 250 x 97, 40: 260 x 99, 41: 265 x 101. If you have any other styling or sizing queries, we would love to hear from you at customerservice@birdsnest.com.au, at our Facebook page, or through Twitter.

Great fit and colour. So comfortable! I'd been looking at this colour and model at a local shop but they didn't have my size. Then I thought to look up Birdsnest and was so happy when I found the size I needed in this beautiful colour. The cherry is such a lovely shade of red.

This is my second pair of Birkenstock. I have the same style in silver and wear them all the time in summer - those shoes are 6-7 years old now. Thought I'd splash out on a new pair and have been eyeing the cherry red for a while. Very happy with my purchase.

This is my very first pair of Birkenstocks and when I first wore them my feet nearly cried out to me to stop - I thought, oh no! Maybe these shoes aren't for me!! But then I persisted and wore them for a couple of hours each and every day and now they're sooooo comfortable!
